Soho House has become so popular that it’s no longer admitting new members to access its clubs in three cities as it deals with complaints of overcrowding. Beginning in 2024, people looking to secure an annual membership — which can cost as much as $5,000 — will be out of luck. The chain of private clubs aimed at creatives is halting the acceptance of new members in New York, Los Angeles and its city of origin, London. Across the three cities there are about 20 houses, all of which have restaurants with bars: some have pools, workout facilities, spas and hotel rooms. Soho House (SHCO) went public in 2021 and has about 185,000 members and another 98,000 on its waitlist.
